Peoplesoft Security Question:
Suppose when a user is tied to a primary permission list how does it decide the department data access for the employee? Where and how is this mapping done?
Answer:
User is tied to a primary permission list in user profile table. This permission list is tied to a setid and deptid in the security setup. This can be done by navigating to Setup HRMS -> Security -> Core row level security -> Security by dept tree. All the departments that get tied here against the permission list are accessible to the user.
